About this app

Maximize your energy generation with optiPV.

Are you getting the most out of your plugin solar panels? With optiPV, you can align your panels precisely with the sun’s path, ensuring you capture maximum irradiance throughout the day. Whether you're aiming for "set-it-and-forget-it" convenience at solar noon or micro-adjusting for peak efficiency every hour, optiPV is your precision tool for solar independence.

How it works:

Using your phone’s high-precision sensors and real-time local weather data, optiPV calculates the ideal orientation for your specific location. Our intuitive "Bullseye" interface gives you immediate feedback, letting you know exactly when your panel is positioned in the optimal generation zone.

Key Features:

• Real-time Alignment: Follow the sun throughout the day for hourly optimisation.

• Solar Noon Calibration: Quickly lock in the optimal angle for the entire day.

• Precision Feedback: Use your phone’s sensors to guide your panel adjustment with ease.

• Weather-Integrated Data: Alignment recommendations adjusted for current local conditions, supplied by pre-funded https://open-meteo.com.

• High-Glare Audio Guidance: Blinded by bright sunlight? Pop your earphones in. optiPV uses advanced stereo audio to guide you by ear—a left/right balance helps you find the perfect heading, while a changing pitch tells you exactly when you've hit the correct tilt angle. Perfect alignment, zero screen glare.

• Intelligent Targeting System: No complex math required. Simply use our interactive visual bullseye to align your phone with the perfect solar trajectory.

• Smart Weather Warnings: Analyses your localised forecasts to alert you if high winds are on the way, giving you plenty of time to secure your portable setup.
